I recognised that dark Danaid from a butterfly book. (post 84)
It should be Euploea algea frusthoferi.

Check through the Euploea algea subspecies in Yata & co-author's: Butterflies of SEA Islands vol II. I cann't find any subsp. frusthoferi. D'Abrera (1982) mentioned E. algea fruhstorferi in Butterflies of the Oriental Region vol 1, page 230. He pointed out it is similar to E. algea diana with the male sex brand more exaggerated and the white spots are obsolete and from central Sulawesi.
